  • Rose Hill News 16
    ISSUE 16 March 2012 ROSE HILL news GOOD HEALTH ONFOLLOWING years of frustration ROSE HILL and repeated requests to GP’s surgeries and the Primary Care Trust, residents of Rose Hill are about to see the beginnings of health care services being offered right in the centre of the estate. OCHA’s successful bid to the BIG Lottery Fund highlighted the urgent need for health care services on Rose Hill. The application points out that “the three mile round trip to the nearest GP practice, presents access issues for the elderly, infirm and disabled and travel cost issues for those on low incomes.” The BIG Lottery agreed to fund a five year project enabling OCHA’s Rose Hill community team to work with local GPs and NHS to bring a range of services to the estate, reducing the number of times residents have to travel to their GP surgery. Initial discussions have taken place with the Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group, GP’s Practice Managers and NHS Practitioners. LAUNCH To launch the project the Health Bus will come to The Oval on Friday 24 February 10.00am – 3.00pm and will be offering free Health MOTs. This is a 15 minute private consultation tive; the Health Bus is a good way there will be fruity fun and games Health Initiative and help raise for residents’ to show that there is with an NHS nurse who will offer to bring services close to where from 3.00pm onwards on the Bus awareness of the importance of a need here for substantial health blood pressure testing, BMI and people live.

  • Response to Boundary Commission's Draft Recommendations on the New
    Response to Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations on the new electoral arrangements for Oxford City Council (June 2018) Report prepared by Oxford East Green Party with the support of local residents 12th August 2018 FINAL VERSION 1 1. Introduction The Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations (June 2018) are, in almost all respects, the same as those presented to them by Oxford City Council’s Labour Group. There are only minor revisions reflecting some errors in the City’s initial calculations and some small changes suggested by the Boundary Commission. Oxford City Council has, very recently (7th August 2018 – going to the City’s Executive Board on 14th August 2018), suggested some minor refinements in response to these Draft Recommendations1 but has, perhaps not surprisingly given their provenance, largely accepted them. Unfortunately, the original proposals are – in the East of the City at least (St. Clement’s, Bartlemas and Donnington Wards) – not driven by the need to more accurately reflect community interests and identities or promote more effective and convenient local government. They were, as one Labour Councillor said to a Green Councillor in a cross-party review group; “designed to make sure you lot can’t get re-elected”. In this alternative arrangement of wards in East Oxford, we use evidence and examples to present our alternative to the Draft Recommendations for new wards we have provisionally named St. Clements, Bannister and Cricket Wards. This alternative arrangement maintains electoral equality whilst better: • Reflecting community boundaries and identities • Promoting more effective and convenient local government These proposals were accepted by Oxford City Council’s Electoral Services Manager, Martin John, as being a viable alternative arrangement of the three wards referred to in the Draft Recommendations as St.

What is always said about its origins depends wholly on statements in annals of Osney abbey, which, when still a priory, took over the college. Here we are told that Robert d’Oilly built the castle in 1071 and founded St George’s church in 1074, and also that Osney priory was founded by Robert II d’Oilly (nephew of the first), in 1129 (Osney Annals, Annales monastici, iv. 9–10, 19; Salter, Ctl. Oseney, iv. 1, 11). In 1149 the same Robert II d’Oilly and one Geoffrey d’Ivry, the narrative says, gave the church to the canons of Osney (Annales monastici, iv. 26; Salter, Ctl. Oseney, iv. 24). The names of the patrons who made this gift and the year are contradicted by charters of the Empress Matilda and of King Stephen, but they represent the level of falsehood in the history invented for Osney.
